Also known as \(q\)-design, Geometric design.
Description
A \(q\)-ary code that can be mapped into a subspace \(t\)-\((n,w,\lambda)_q\) design.
Subspace designs exist for all parameters in sufficiently large dimension that also satisfies divisibility constraints [3,4].
Notes
See [5] for a review on subspace designs.Popular summary of the existence of subspace designs in Quanta Magazine.
Parents
- Galois-field \(q\)-ary code
- Design — Subspace designs are designs on a space of fixed-weight \(q\)-ary strings (a.k.a. \(q\)-Johnson association scheme) [6].
Child
- Combinatorial design — Combinatorial designs are designs on a space of fixed-weight binary strings (a.k.a. Johnson association scheme) [7,8]. Subspace designs reduce to combinatorial designs for \(q=2\).
